Internal Inspection of the Pipelines

The intelligent Pipeline Inspection Gauge (PIG) makes it way from the PIG trap at the start of the pipelines in Portovaya, Russia, through the pipeline, and is recovered in Lubmin, Germany at the end of the pipelines. The internal inspection tool is designed to detect any sign of corrosion, the internal dimensions of the pipeline, its precise position, size and coordinates, and the exact run of the pipelines curves. This video tells the story of its journey through the Nord Stream Pipelines.

Nord Stream Pipeline System Fully Operational

After just 30 months of construction, the Nord Stream twin pipeline system is fully operational. Together the pipelines have the capacity to deliver 55 billion cubic metres of gas a year. More than 200 guests attended a celebration on October 8, 2012, where Nord Stream's Line 2 was put into operation.

Nord Stream Event We Deliver

Just 30 months after the start of construction of its first pipeline, Nord Stream's twin pipeline system came on stream on 8 October, on schedule and on budget. About 200 international guests came to Portovaya Bay, Russia to celebrate the flow of gas through Line 2. Together the two pipelines are now capable of delivering 55 billion cubic metres of gas a year to the European gas grid.

Nord Stream The Project

Nord Stream's vision is to establish a direct connection between the vast gas reserves in Russia and the energy markets in the European Union. The Nord Stream twin pipeline system through the Baltic Sea runs from Vyborg, Russia to Lubmin near Greifswald, Germany. Besides meeting the highest international environmental standards when implementing the pipeline project, Nord Stream observes national and international maritime and legal requirements during construction, testing and operation of the pipeline. Construction of Line 1 began in April 2010, and was completed in June 2011. Transportation of gas through Line 1 began in mid-November 2011. From the last quarter of 2012, gas transport through the second line will start. For more information, please visit our website at http://www.nord-stream.com

Nord Stream Barent Zanen-Dredging Completed in German Waters

The hopper dredger Barent Zanen is one of the 120 vessels which worked in the Pomeranian Bay for the Nord Stream project from May 2010 to the end of 2010. The Barent Zanen created a 27-kilometre trench into which the twin pipelines were laid. The pipelines were then covered with the same soil that was excavated to ensure the swift recovery of the seabed.

Nord Stream Pipeline Inauguration

On November 8, 2011, Nord Stream AG celebrated the start of gas transport through Line 1 of its twin pipeline system. The event held in Lubmin near Greifswald, Germany was attended by heads of state and government, representatives of Nord Stream's shareholders and journalists from around the world.

Nord Stream Lubmin Landfall

Nord Stream's twin offshore pipelines run through the Baltic Sea from Russia, and exit at the German mainland at the Lubmin landfall facility. The Lubmin landfall facility is the logistical link between the Nord Stream Pipeline system and the European long-distance gas network. Here, gas is prepared and tested before being transported onward.

Nord Stream Portovaya Bay Landfall

Portovaya Bay is the starting point of the Nord Stream Pipeline. At the Russian landfall facility in Portovaya Bay, the powerful Portovaya Compressor Station builds the pressure needed to transport gas via Nord Stream all the way through the Baltic Sea to Germany without interim compression. Unique equipment at the landfall facility guarantees the safe operation of the Nord Stream Pipeline.

Nord Stream Solitaire Completes Work

Allseas' Solitaire, the world's largest pipelay vessel, has completed work on Line 2 of the Nord Stream natural gas pipeline through the Baltic Sea ahead of schedule. The vessel laid 342.5 kilometres of each of the twin pipelines in the Gulf of Finland. For more information, please visit our website at http://www.nord-stream.com

Nord Stream Underwater Tie Ins

Each of the two Nord Stream Pipelines is built in three sections. Once completed, the sections are welded together. This "tie-in" process takes place on the seabed in an underwater welding habitat. Welding activities are remotely controlled from a support vessel, and divers assist and monitor the subsea construction work.
